BRIDEGROOM is the MUST SEE  LGBT Movie of the year!
Winner of countless festival awards!

OPENING  OCTOBER  4TH  at   QUAD CINEMA

It started with a heart wrenching video that went viral overnight. On May 7, 2012, the anniversary of Tom’s death, after a year of
documenting his own grief, Shane decided to make a video tribute to his
partner entitled “It Could Happen To You.” This film, posted on YouTube,
received over 3.4 million views and has been translated into over 20
different languages. The impact of Shane’s YouTube video and the raw
nerve it touched, tells us this is an important story that needs to be
told.

With the incredible support from influential people like Brad and George
Takei and Neil Patrick Harris, Bridegroom was successfully funded on
July 19, 2012 by over 6,500 people on Kickstarter.com becoming the most
funded documentary in the history of crowd funding, and released in the
fall of 2013.

BRIDEGROOM is a documentary directed by Linda Bloodworth-Thomason that
tells the emotional journey of Shane and Tom, two young men in a loving
and committed relationship — a relationship that was cut tragically
short by a misstep off the side of a roof. The story of what happened
after this accidental death– of how people without the legal protections
of marriage can find themselves completely shut out and ostracized– is
poignant, enraging and opens a window onto the issue of marriage
equality like no speech or lecture ever will.

“This
is really, on one level, a wonderful, sad, heart-breaking yet
exhilarating and life-affirming story, and on another level, it’s a
story
about our nation’s struggle to take one more step in forming a more
perfect union, for which marriage is both the symbol and substance,”
said former President Bill Clinton of the film.

Shane  Crone also added “BRIDEGROOM
 is not about revenge or politics. It is a film about love,
forgiveness, and about finding the courage to be who you are when the
world says you shouldn’t. This is my fairy tale, and Tom is, and always
will be, my happy ending.”
